Where did you get this info?

That is how it is done with an immigrant visa, NVC schedules the interview.

Yup they do but when USEM postpone now its up to USEM .. trust me i read that info link 1000 times

It was not stated that USEM called the OP to cancel the interview, plus in a later post the OP contacted NVC and they don't know where the case file is.

Several months ago, possibly longer, There were some posts about how to track a package out of the NVC through the DHL process. Maybe search on DHL or 'track'.

Maybe Hank or Greenbaum has better memory than me on how to do it.

[Hank_ 9,174]

No exact way to track the DHL shipment between NVC and USEM, some came up with ideas on how to get close, but not track the actual package.

CEAC is still the best bet.

As for the OP, contact NVC, USEM whoever can give you real answers and hopefully find your case file, get you a new interview date....

Thanks for the update.

Why call? That advice wasn't for you.

After a case leaves the NVC, getting them to do anything is a lost cause.

Keep in mind that the U.S. Embassy Manila never loses anything. As Chinook and I found out, they simply "misplace" them. My best advice is to stay in contact with the embassy. Eventually they will remember where they "misplaced" your case, and then they will allow you to interview.

That's not what he stated. He recommended that you stay in touch with the Embassy to insure you are being process properly and timely. Nothing more and nothing less.

Huh!?! Where did I say that? There's a gap in your logic big enough to drive a truck through! Sheesh...
